mio giovane e sciocco amico, vediamo tra tre - sei mesi cosa mi dici, con altri 900.000 disoccupati senza ammortizzatori sociali.
ti riporto quello che scriveva (2004) un tizio americano direttore generale di una societa' di fondi da 1000 miliardi di US$ (il 60% del PIL italiano, a spanna).
prima pero' ti traduco i punti salienti, un sacco di gente non capisce l' inglese e si vergogna a dirlo:
diminuzione del 50% dei salari minimi, aumento delle spese per salute educazione e giovani, finanziata col taglio delle spese per gli anziani; rinegoziazione o annullamento del debito [moratoria unilaterale] coi paesi forti esportatori verso gli USA; tassazione dei paesi che hanno beneficiato dalla invasione dell' Iraq eccetera eccetera.
in pratica, il signore in questione propone la legge marziale, negli USA.
chi deve cambiare pusher sei tu, io sono perfettamente lucido, avendo previsto le cose che stanno succedendo nel 2004.
=========================
There is a need to immediately implement a number of important structural measures affecting the global participants. Included in this Category I list of critical adjustments to increase savings, reduce debt and improve current account deficit are:
1. Cut by 15% across the board all U.S. social spending programs.
2. Increase U.S. tax rates.
3. Increase incentives to save in U.S. - consumption taxes.
4. Devise capital controls such that capital cannot be exported out of the U.S.
5. Debt renegotiation/forgiveness by countries with cumulative high trade surplus with the U.S.
6. Change the Federal Reserve Bank objective function to include a constraint on the size of the trade deficit.
7. Prohibit sale of highly sensitive technology and defense to any and all foreign countries.
8. Revalue Chinese currency to U.S. dollar by 40 percent.
9. Targeted protective tariffs if needed.
10. Renegotiate WTO.
11. Prohibit the Fed from purchasing bonds from foreign holders of U.S. debt.
All of the above measures are of great and equal importance and need to be implemented as a package. Piecemeal implementation violates the requirement that all participants must contribute to the readjustment of the global economy.
Category I initiatives need to be followed by a second set of policy measures that we will call Category II. These initiatives are crucial to the long run political-economic stability of the U.S. economy.
1. Increase U.S. defense spending.
2. Develop incentive-based programs for youth, education and health. Take funds from programs for elderly.
3. Reduce minimum wage in U.S. by 50%.
4. Repeal regressive Prop 13 in California.
5. Tax prosperous countries that have benefited from prior IMF bailout recipient
6. Proceeds disbursed to IMF "equity" holders.
7. Tax holders of Iraqi debt for invasion "appreciation" and ultimate "occupation" appreciation value.
8. U.S. Treasury needs to extend average maturity of the debt issued.
Finally, a few additional measures are necessary to help safeguard U.S. national interests. These measures include:
1. Conflict of interest disclosure by any person providing policy advice.
2. Prohibit consulting contracts for any public official leaving office for two-year period.
